  Newspaper coverage of the Armenian Genocide as it was happening was persistent and detailed.  In 1915 alone, the New York Times published 145 articles, one every 2-3 days, on the continuous massacres of Armenians.  Although the term "genocide" had not been invented yet, the reports described the Turkish slaughter of the Armenians as "systematic," "deliberate," "authorized," and "organized by the government," a "campaign of extermination" and "systematic race extermination."
